3rd person controls

[GodsKnight117]

So do you guys know the best way to make 3rd person controls with a camera that could rotate around the player freely with the right joystick, and the player would rotate there facing direction to the left joystick all dependent on the cameras position. Examples of this would be most 3rd person games - tho I don’t actually play a lot, here are some - Dark Souls - without the lock-on, Spyro, not Minecraft - that is the opposite of what I want, Shadow of Mordor/war/I’m not sure but I’m guessing assassins creed has a similar camera, etc. You guys know what I’m talking about. From what I’ve seen they seem complicated to make, but I would appreciate any answers, even just a point to a good tutorial.

I posted about a little demo I made here, full source / project links included:

Third Person Camera Movement Script

It can but you might have better luck starting from something designed for touch screen, since the above is designed for mouse movement. In my proximity_buttons project I have a small demo called DemoCameraRotatedControls.unity that sorta does this, but it is more of a top-down isometric controller, although you could probably hack it to do what you want. proximity_buttons is presently hosted at these locations: https://bitbucket.org/kurtdekker/proximity_buttons https://github.com/kurtde…
